Although "passion" originally came from the Latin lord for suffering, the word has evolved over many centuries. Now, the Oxford English Dictionary defines it as an intense desire or a strong and barely controllable emotion. In this week's message, called The Passions of the Christ, we will look at the events of Jesus' life that got Him fired up. From the Triumphal Entry on Palm Sunday to the hours of prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, we will experience the intense desires and barely controllable emotions of our Savior, and we will spend some time reflecting on our passions too. Why? Because passions reveal priorities. After all, we are only passionate about the things we really care about.
